Control-click has worked as a straightforward substitute for right-click on Macs for a long time now. Interstingly it was Microsoft that really introduced "ergonomic" mouse shapes, with the "Dove bar" mouse http://www.ideo.com/work/mouse-for-microsoft/ and then the Microsoft Mouse 2.0.

HN discussionSomething really interesting (and relevant) is that in cases where a redesign makes an interface markedly easier, it can still perform less favorably simply because people liked knowing how to do something that most people couldn't (i.e. using said interface). Take Ideo's redesign of the Bloomberg example, for example. http://www.ideo.com/work/bloomberg-terminal-concept
